    • It is important that you do the reading about this subject in the sub- forum. It's not complicated but you need to be in control and I don't think you are. For instance, much of the information you need and also the case transcripts that you're looking for are in the fixed topics at the top of this sub- forum but clearly you didn't know that. You will gain in confidence if you do the reading. Particularly as it now looks as if the mediation has not worked because EVRi have stayed you up and so you may now be going to trial. You need to understand thoroughly what you are doing. We will help you and you will find our support is unstinting but you have to do your part. Please spend a lot of time reading the stories on the sub- forum especially the pinned posts at the top of the sub- forum and then start preparing your court bundle. We have instructions here for everything
    • I have had a secondary thought.  I borrowed £s from a completely separate entity 6y ago. It was personal and unsecured. I was going to repay upon sale of the property. But then repo and I couldn't.  Eventually they applied and got a charging order on the property.  Their lawyers wrote that if I didn't repay they may apply for an order for sale.  I'm not in control of the sale.  The lender won't agree to an order for sale.  The judge won't expedite it/ extract from trial.  Someone here on cag may or may not suggest I can apply for an order v the receiver?  But could I alternatively ask this separate entity with a c.o to carry out their threat and actually make an application to court for an order for sale v the receiver instead?
    • You left the PCN number showing, but no worries, I've redacted it. Euro Car parks are very well known to us.  I've just skimmed through the titles of the latest 100 cases we have with them (I gave up after 100) and, despite all their bluster and threats, in not one have they taken the Cagger to court. You stayed there for 2 hours &:45 minutes.  I'm guessing the limit is 2 hours and 30 minutes, right?  
    • If the claimant fails to draft directions the court can order a Case Management Hearing to set them but normally in Fast Track claims the claimant sets the directions...Unlike small claims track which are always set the court.

    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

Boris Johnson, former Prime Minister

Interesting that Starmer is telling the Tories/Populists that they need to get rid of Johnson for the good of the Nation and the Tory party, despite any change from Johnson probably not being in Labours best interests ...

 

... So how did that go when Cameron suggested that to Labour/Corbynistas of Corbyn?

 

?

If only the Govt had thrown a protective ring around care homes with the same gusto they do around their crooked MPs

“This is specifically not allowed. Mr. Mansour used to be a Cabinet Minister in Egypt, he has given the Tories a huge amount of money, and immediately gets a knighthood.

That seems straightforwardly corrupt.  Shouldn’t they both be in jail?”

Some may think Annette Dittert's article in the New Statesman is alarmist: I don't. She has experience of the UK and Poland and I think she's very perceptive.

 

Legislation that's being proposed by Patel and Raab is also worrying.

This government is hammering away at the foundations of a free society. Look to Warsaw to see where that can lead.

I think the following comment says it all

 

Today, a former Danish minister was sentenced to 60 days in jail for breaking the ministerial code. As one commentator said, we’d rather not become the UK so we are relieved to see that the judiciary works.

I also see that 'promote Brexit then leave the uk Dyson seems to have been effectively been chosen as the supplier of choice for school air filtration and is being promoted by the DfE

 

Anyone any details on the tender process ?

The rules already dont apply as is repeatedly demonstrated, this is about making ministers the arbiters of ALL laws for everyone and anyone

Dont worry .. the Tories will just put him on a back burner until it blows over

 

Hopefully he'll get the lib-dems a few thousand votes though.

Labour and green voters there should vote lib-dem

I don't think I've seen this before. The whole leadership of the 1922 committee has withdrawn its support from the PM and is accepting letters over the Xmas recess. 

 

Interesting timing and I guess some will wait for the result of the byelection in North Shropshire.

Makes the MET complicit, perhaps they better investigate and prosecute themselves. Cressida Dick is useless.  She has the "accidental" killing of an innocent Brazilian on the tube to her discredit.

Interesting ...

 

"In recent weeks, Mr Kyle had spoken out about the Northern Ireland Protocol claiming it had potential to offer “significant opportunities” if fundamental changes were made to it.

Most unionists are fiercely opposed to the post-Brexit arrangements which include further checks on goods arriving into the region from Great Britain regarding it as a border in the Irish Sea."

This is my tweet of the day from Armando Ianucci answering Oliver Dowden on 'cancel culture'.

 

If you’re against Cancel Culture, why are you banning demonstrations, stripping people of citizenship, selling off TV networks you don’t like, neutering the Electoral Commission, proroguing Parliament, and enforcing voting restrictions on those who don’t have an ID card?
